Izdelki za otroke - Otroški vozički - 1. del: Otroški vozički s sedežem in otroški vozički s košaro

Ta osnutek evropskega standarda določa varnostne zahteve in preskusne metode za otroške vozičke, namenjene prevozu enega ali več otrok, ki tehtajo do 15 kg, pri čemer lahko na morebitno pritrjeno ploščad stopi otrok, ki tehta do 20 kg.
Ta osnutek evropskega standarda ne zajema igrač, nakupovalnih vozičkov, opreme za nošenje otroka, opremljene s kolesi, otroških vozičkov, ki jih poganja motor, in vozičkov, namenjenih otrokom s posebnimi potrebami.
Kadar obstajajo dodatni izdelki, ki se pritrdijo na otroški voziček, naj bi se izvedla analiza nevarnosti in tveganj, da se opredelijo vse morebitne nevarnosti.
Kadar ima otroški voziček ali kateri koli del otroškega vozička več funkcij ali ga je mogoče spremeniti v drugo funkcijo, mora biti skladen z ustreznimi standardi.

EN 1888-1:2018 (E) 5 European foreword This document (EN 1888-1:2018) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 252 “Child care articles”, the secretariat of which is held by AFNOR. This European Standard shall be given the status of a national standard, either by publication of an identical text or by endorsement, at the latest by June

t Ů s {á and conflicting national standards shall be withdrawn at the latest by December

t Ů s {ä Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights. CEN shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. This document supersedes EN 1888:2012. In comparison with this EN 1888:2012, the significant technical changes relate to the following issues: a) chemical hazards; b) entrapment hazards; c) hazards from moving parts; d) entanglement hazards; e) parking device test method; f) stability of the vehicle; g) introduction of an informative Annex E giving relevant translations for warning sentences; h) introduction of an informative Annex D giving information on the assessment of moving parts of canopies; i) introduction of an informative Annex G giving information on the arrangement of approval marks for car seats. In November 2014, the European Working Group decided to split EN 1888 into different parts to clearly treat in a different way, new products or new functions of wheeled child conveyances. EN 1888 is currently composed with the following parts: — EN 1888-1, Child care articles — Wheeled child conveyances — Part 1: Pushchairs and prams; — EN 1888-2, Child care articles — Wheeled child conveyances — Part 2: Pushchairs for children above 15 kg up to 22 kg. EN 1888 therefore becomes EN 1888-1 and is only applicable to pushchairs and prams. It will be used as a reference in future parts. According to the CEN-CENELEC Internal Regulations, the national standards organisations of the following countries are bound to implement this European Standard: Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Serbia, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Turkey and the United Kingdom.

EN 1888-1:2018 (E) 6 1 Scope This European Standard specifies the safety requirements and test methods for pushchairs and prams, designed for the carriage of one or more children, up to 15 kg each and up to 20 kg for any integrated platform on which a child can stand. This European Standard does not cover toys, baby carriers fitted with wheels; pushchairs and prams propelled by a motor and pushchairs and prams designed for children with special needs. Where a pushchair or pram or any part of the pushchair or pram has several functions or can be converted into another function it is due to comply with relevant standard(s). 2 Normative references The following documents are referred to in the text in such a way that some or all of their content constitutes requirements of this document. For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references, the latest edition of the referenced document (including any amendments) applies.
